The cursed dating app

Misha at the behest of her best friend downloads a dating app that she's never heard of. Her BFF met her current boyfriend through it and, according to her, he's perfect. She warns you that the sign-up process is a little bit strange but completely worth it. Misha shrugged off the comment, fill out the information, thinking nothing of it. The very next day, a box arrives on her doorstep. Unmarked. Misha took it inside hesitantly and open it to find an odd array of items inside: a pink elixir, a red and orange rose, and some chalk. A notification is sent to her phone shortly after. This unnerved her. The app requests that she open the vile and follow the instructions on the screen: draw a small circle on the floor, think of the perfect partner, and drink the liquid. It sounds like something from a cult drama. Maybe a prank? Oh, well worth a shot she thought following the instructions. in a gigantic poof of pink smoke, a man appears in her living room, standing inside the circle. In a few days, she get used to him. He is perfectly nice and makes an effort to plan dates as well as bring you gifts, but you soon realize that he barely eats, doesn't sleep, and doesn't seem to know anything specific about his past. Misha tries to shake off the odd feeling, the two continue their life together and it isn't until a year later that she sees his face, with a different name, on a missing person poster. A bad feeling feels her gut. She tries to help him regain his memory but every attempt nearly drove him mad. He just wanted to be her Perfect Kevin. For the next 73 years he was just that overly perfect and content with serving her as my need. It was only in death that she discovered she had made a deal with the devil.
